Woodland Critters Blog Hop

Welcome to the Woodland Critters Blog Hop

We are so happy that you are joining us for this fun filled hop full of furry and feathery creatures from the forest.

You should have arrived from Jenny’s blog - http://crazyaboutcricut.blogspot.com/but if you need to start at the beginning, Connie Can Crop is the first stop in this hop. This is a one day blog hop and we would really appreciate it if you would leave some love in the form of a comment for all of these talented crafters.

Our sponsor for this hop is also Connie Can Crop.

She has reached into her crafty shop, Connie's Crafty Cart, and decided to give away an awesome stamp set by Martha Stewart.

I could hardly wait to use my new Photo Sleeve Fuse™ Tool by We R Memory Keepers to make this fun shaker card. If you like shaker cards but hate what a pain in the neck it is to put them together – making sure you line the foam tape up perfectly so that there is no chance for any sequins, beads, (or whatever else you might be using) to escape – then this is the tool for you! All you need to do is make a pocket to hold your shakey things in which is super easy peesy to do with the FUSE tool. I used photo album inserts that I found at Michaels for $1.49 for six pages. All I did was cut out a circle large enough to cover the hole in my card, fuse along the edges, making sure to leave a spot open so I could fill it with my sequins. Once all the sequins were added, I finished fusing the last edge together and – voila! – my shaker pocket was ready to attach to my card.

Here are a couple of links to videos showing you how to use the tool to make a shaker card:

you card turned out so great! I also purchased the fuse tool recently...I have had no success. I watched the vids and have several different mediums of clear and something goes wrong every time...medium ripping and not adhering and busting open...I thought I need to purchase the fuse material but obviously not since it sounds like you used just something you purchased...ugh! teach me!!!

cute, cute, cute! And did I mention I think your card is so cute! I love the shaker! I bought the fuse, too. It's still sitting here...you've inspired me to take it out and dust if off. I enjoyed hopping with you.

Love your card! The paper and owl are so colorful and go well together. I love shaker cards and just learned how to make them. I am going to check out the FUSE tool and those videos, thanks for sharing!

Great shaker card. I have been playing with my fuzzy too. Fun tool. You did a great job. When I did mine, I just did a square pocket and hid it better 2 card bases with the circle wholes in it. TFS And to hop with us. Enjoy the weekend.

Never made a shaker card but this tool you used gives me hope that maybe someday I can! Your card is adorable! Love the owl, love the colors you used and love your shaker jewels! Thanks for sharing so much!!
